Dynamic assembly of chromatin complexes during cellular senescence: implications for the growth arrest of human melanocytic nevi
19 May 2007
Abstract excerpt
The retinoblastoma (RB)/p16(INK4a) pathway regulates senescence of human melanocytes in culture and oncogene-induced senescence of melanocytic nevi in vivo. This senescence response is likely due to chromatin modifications because RB complexes from senescent melanocytes contain increased levels of histone deacetylase (HDAC) activity and tethered HDAC1. Here we show that HDAC1 is prominently detected in...
